I'm new to the forum but I think this is posted in the wrong area. Any way. What codes is it throwing? Do you have a scan tool? Does everything shut off when the steering locks up?

So no other codes? Did you fix anything before you cleared the codes? I'm thinking you should check your timing.

I have replaced the throttle positioning sensor, I've had the evap solenoid replaced, and ive checked all the fuses. this is not the first time the evap was acting up, but i will have the timing checked.

Default With the car in park

And running. Pop your hood and wiggle both battery terminals and cables. See if the engine stumbles. Then post here https://montecarloforum.com/forum/mo...repair-help-8/ giving as much info as you can.( Makes it easier to diagnose with out seeing the car).
